LVM Extended for cloudguard management from SWAP space does not reflect in disk output

Hi Team,

So I setup R81.20 in Azure from marketplace and surprisingly after the installation and everything completed observed that 300 GB was allocated to Swap space from /dev/sdb.

So I swapoff and then using fdisk /dev/sdb

Deleted the partition

Created new LVM partition of 300 GB

Then have done the pvresize /dev/sdb1 which was successful.

Then I stopped the cp services and instead of making changes from lvm_manager I did extend from command line (As mentioned in this thread it does not need to be done from maintainance mode https://community.checkpoint.com/t5/Cloud-Network-Security/How-to-put-a-CloudGuard-VM-in-maintenance-mode-during-resize/m-p/56716#M1124) but still this is not reflecting in df -hT output however it does show in lvs as well as lvm_manger output

Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg_splat-lv_current xfs 20G 12G 8.3G 59% / /dev/sda2 ext3 291M 42M 235M 15% /boot /dev/mapper/vg_splat-lv_log xfs 43G 5.2G 38G 13% /var/log tmpfs tmpfs 16G 5.6M 16G 1% /dev/shm cgroup tmpfs 16G 0 16G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup

Here is lvm_manager output

xfs_growfs is the solution in R81.20

finally I did -

xfs_growfs /dev/mapper/vg_splat-lv_log

xfs_growfs /dev/mapper/vg_splat-lv_current

And it started showing as intended.
